Another theme, personal identity, is seen throughout all of the characters in the book. According to the Stanford Encyclopedia of

Friendship is one of the most meaningful treasures in the world. The book I chose to read was "Of Mice and Men" by John Steinbeck. John Steinbeck introduces the theme, friendship in the book; the two main characters stick together through thick and thin. In "Of Mice and Men", John Steinbeck uses foreshadowing in several ways to illustrate the title, characterization/dreams, and Lennie and his conflicts.

Throughout this book, there are a lot of themes but one good one, in particular, is that true friends stick together until the end. There are a lot of examples of this because there were so many hardships where the kids stuck together. One of these examples is when Minho goes out into the storm to get Thomas up and saves his life. “Then someone was grabbing him, pulling him to his feet. Minho” (Dashner

Friendship is another major theme in the novel, John Marsden uses this theme to overlap with other issues like survival and war. The characters of the novel all depend on those around them for help and support in everything they do. Friendship provides people with strength, hope and love, and all these things help a person overcome tragedies, death, and moments when it seems life isn’t worth living. An example from the novel would be when Corrie’s house is blown up, she is devastated and it is only with the support of the others that she can continue. A real life issue about friendship/love and survival would be the incident with the Beaconsfield miners. The miners were sure they would die, but with the thought in there heads of family and friends outside waiting for there arrival, they continued on battling for there lives, relying only on the support of loved ones. When Lee was shot in the leg by soldiers, Robyn carried Lee over her shoulder until it was safe enough to treat the wound. Robyn overcame her fear of blood and cuts, to save Lee from infection and disease. John Marsden uses techniques like first person

The theme, friends are family, is shown multiple times in the beginning of the novel when Ponyboy says, “One of the four boys Darry, and Soda, and I have grown up with and consider family”(3). Ponyboy literally explains that he considers Dally, Johnny, Two Bit Matthews, and Steve family. He says this because they are true friends and they have been for a long time. They know each other well and stick together. Another good quote is when Ponyboy says “But we were family and we couldn’t just leave him…”(300). Ponyboy again is basically just showing that his friend Dallas

In the novel “The Outsiders” by S.E Hinton an important theme is family and friendship. This theme is interesting because it shows us how when you’re family you come together to look after each other no matter what. The theme of friendship is also interesting because when your friends you support each other through everything and anything no matter what the consequences are. In “The Outsiders” the theme of friendship is also a main interest because despite peoples differences they can come together through a common interest or factor, which is what happens in “The Outsiders”.

The main focus is placed on Will, whom has a rare genius to put together abstract math problems and finds it hard to relate to world without getting arrested for doing something violent and rebellious. He grew up in South Boston and the hard streets have jaded him, while his intelligence further isolated him from people and made him hostile to other people. In the beginning of the film, Will is discovered by Lambeu (Stellan Skarsgard) a professor of mathematics, and his well-being becomes a serious issue and he is pursued. While placing a difficult math problem on the chalkboard

One major theme in the book is coming of age. Both Alex and Dean are pushed into situations where they must make life or death decisions on the behalf of a group of children. This forces them to leave behind all of their childish notions of how the world should

     Friendship played a big part in the story. All the incidents that happened between friends throughout the book led to the tragic end . One thing can make you believe you can accomplish anything in the world. George believed in himself to accomplish his goal of having a farm , but at the end

The friendships and relationships formed and broken by characters and how they impacted on others at the time was a big part of the read. More

The first theme I noticed from the books is the value of friendship. In Staying Fat For Sarah Byrnes, if Sarah Byrnes didn’t have Eric Calhoune as a friend, she would have never told anyone the true story about the burns on her face. Having a friend to tell her story to, saved Sarah from her father. If Eric Calhoune didn’t have Sarah Byrnes as a friend, he would not have stood up for himself when he was getting picked on. He was able to do so because he had learned how to be tough from his friend Sarah Byrnes. In the book Hope Was Here, if GT Stoop didn’t have Hope and Braverman as friends, he wouldn’t have received half of his votes in his campaign for mayor. GT received more votes because his friends spent a lot of time campaigning for him. If Hope didn’t have GT as a friend, she would not have had the experience of having a father.

Will, the protagonist, was very likable as well. However, his character only evolved for me as a result of Harlen’s unconditional and relentless friendship with him. In short, Will’s character would’ve lacked without the likeness of a Harlen Bigbear. The character naming was also very ingenious. The Oldpersons, Prettywomans, baby South Wing, and others were interesting and clever last names that made the notion of identifying with the characters even more interesting and the reading, fun.

The main lessons in Ellis' book were friendship and collaboration. In the book friendship is seen as a common and recurring theme

Will Hobbs, the author of the novel, has spent most of his novel to discuss about his characters by using figurative language to describe them and how hard they have been through, not only his main character, but for all of his characters, and quietly tell his messages to the readers after every problem ends.

Our parents raise us hoping for us to develop certain character traits, but there comes to a point when we start to become our own person based on the experiences we go through, any situation, good or bad, can influence our personality mentally and emotionally. Emotion is what makes us human, it's how we cope and how we manage our crazy lives’. When our feelings get damaged or even nourished, it will change how we react
